Applicable diameters with two rails:

• Measure the outer diameter of the pipe with the tape measure.
• Calculate the half of the outer diameter.
• Start at the left side of the rail and locate the opposite side using the calculated half of the

outer diameter.

• Put a mark at this position.
• Repeat this at the right side of the rail.
• Draw a line between the two markings.
• Mount the DOWN rail in such a way that the transducer is at the marked location.
